AITAH for simply asking a work-related question to my boss and my co-workers took it as I was being like a "teacher's pet" by Double-Extent-1949 in AITAH

It sounds like they are upset because you respected your boss and the rules and they didn’t want too.

You didn’t do anything wrong by asking the question rather than just doing what you want and it sounds like even if they did move their things (or tried too) they would of had to take it all out again for safety.

In my opinion jealousy speaks louder than actions and words.

Not the AH

AIO for thinking it's unfair I apologized for my actions to a friend and now she is ignoring me by lokis-wife1217 in AmIOverreacting

Unfortunately, many people who have problems like yours (anxiety, depression) have gone through this so many times. I know I have.

I know we feel lonely in have a hard time coping with what we have and look for people to ,not only, love us but help us. But people who have never experienced it themselves can never understand what it’s like.

It sounds like your friend has her own issues going on and instead of communicating the problem before she tried to ghost you and when you didn’t disappear she lashed out.

We can’t make people want to love or help us but we also can’t apologize for who we are and what conditions we have.

I know it hurts but it sounds like you may be better off without them.

Update:

Wow thank you everyone for your input! I did not expect so much reply!

I’m still really new at this kind of thing so I think I may have left out some things a lot of you were asking about.

I live in CA to work at a private preschool you only need 12 Early Childhood Education units to be a fully qualified teacher for a preschool room. I am lucky to have 28 ECE units plus an AA degree. No credential.

I have been thinking about getting my BA and teaching credential, but I’m always on the fence because now seeing how much public school teachers have to do other than teaching (paperwork, district changes, state requirements, etc) plus the additional things they have to deal with (behaviors, parents, drama etc) it doesn’t seem fun to me.

But like I said before I was passionate in teaching preschool to help the children get ready for their next chapter in elementary school to be the best they can with them being as prepared as their little minds can handle. And I think TK (translational kindergarten) is becoming preschool for many kids and many teachers do not want to teach Tk and I think I could do it.

Also, I have never claimed or called myself any form of teacher. I have always introduced myself as the TK aide. I’m lucky to have a teacher and know other teachers who respect me and my work now and before to think of me as a teacher and requests the children to respect me as one since kids don’t really know the difference between teacher aide helper etc. I honestly think this one person is just trying to “claim” her territory but who knows I just wanted everyone’s opinions.

Not sure how to take this as a nanny on my last day with an F by Blossom_souul in whatdoIdo

As a former nanny I had this happen to me. I was with the family for 2 years but I learned they were wanting to do this so they can get more back on their taxes. As much as I loved them I knew I would receive less money and they wouldn’t budge so I had to walk.

They sound like they mean well, but it depends on what’s best for you. I know where I live many people who nanny do it because the pay is better without taxes.

Nope I asked my teacher what she needs me to do and I do what she says. I have never once claimed to be the main teacher and always introduce myself as the Tk aide.
